4/9 is equivalent to it you just need to divide both top and bottom by 2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So I get 8/18
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh nvm i get 16/26

wait
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
Are you given choices, or do you need to come up with an equivalent ratio on your own?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I'm given choices leme get them
OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
that's if you multiply them by 2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2/5
4/5
16/26
20/45

OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
then why you didn't post them hhhhh
OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
seems 16/26 is good
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
Ok. Reduce the given ratio to lowest terms.
Then reduce each choice to lowest terms.
Then pick the ratios that are equal.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
LOL sorry @xapproachesinfinity
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
16/26 cannot possibly be equivalent to 8/18.

18 * 2 = 36, not 26, so 16/26 is not euql to 8/18
OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
oh yeah sorry i thought i saw 36 on bottom
OpenStudy (mathstudent55):
^equal correction
OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
:)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I think it's 2/5

no
OpenStudy (xapproachesinfinity):
reduced form is 4/9
if we multiply by 5 top and bottom what do we get
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ohhhh it's 20/45
